, The Kolnlsche Zeitung comments on
Scheer's statement, Eaying that coming
from such an authoritative, quarter It
must be convincing proof to those
anxious people who bellcv ed the encmj 's
assertions about the Ineffectiveness of
the submarines '
"The fact that Admiral 5cheer does
not bind hl.-self to a definite date," It
sajs. "gives the statement all the more
weight But the main thing Is, and re
mains, the ccrtaint that the L'-hoats
will achieve then, alms, and this certainty
finds suppoit In Admiral Scheer's ut
terance." Of quite, different tone was a long
article which appeared recently tn the
semiofficial paper explaining1 that. In
spite of the great success of the U-boats,
It might be assumed that the submarine
war would not accomplish its ulm of
actually cutting off England's supplies'

On analysis, Dr. Scott finds the President's public utterances
here given to be but the varying expicssicns of a single, definite,
conscious purpose; the strengthening, or introduction of, con
stitutional government leavened with democracy.
The distinguished President of the America Institute of International Law
and author of "International Relations Between the United States and
Germany," also points out Mr. Wilson's less understood purpose of making
democracy safe for the world.
